I don't know that I've ever seen any computer art quite as -- I'm sorry, there's no other way of putting this -- as fucked up as "I made this, you play this, we are enemies," a Flash game that really strongly resembles the unmistakable bonkerosity of the complicated sketches left behind the crazy people who used to sit at their own tables in the library I worked at, furiously drawing for 10 hours at a stretch. It's brilliant and terrible all at once and that is why I love it.

Publio Delgado provides jazz guitar accompaniment to an advertisement for Jones Big ASS Truck Rental & Storage: “In my yard, I don’t care!” Here’s the original, which now seems naked and bereft of wonder: See also Publio’s accompaniment to a lady’s unwise attempt to eat a hot pepper raw: Best, though, is his accompaniment to […]

Arthur Boycott borrowed a copy of Dr William B Carpenter’s The Microscope and its Revelations from Hereford Library in 1886 or thereabouts. His granddaughter, Alice Gillett, just returned it.

@20 – I saw a DVD player with 20 embedded games, and one of the games was called “Seek the Resources.” I laughed.

I really didn’t like that at all. The sound effects were kind of unsettling, but overall the whole thing was just nonsense. And it was easy, too.

I feel like these kinds of things are just created because they are like Maxwell’s Demon for praise. It can sort the praise on one side, and discard any criticism with a wave and a “you didn’t get it.”

It’s a shame the gameplay is so conventional. I thought his other game-like-creation, game, game, game and again game was more interesting because it actually subverted the medium. And I think it had more annoying sound effects. I got about half-way into this one and stopped because it wasn’t annoying enough.
